 Again We ale called to chronicle another once happy home made desc, late and sad by the presence of the angel of death, whose approach was so stealthy and unlocked for that we are forcibly reminded of the uncertainty ol life. On a beautiful Sunday morning, amid it's sacred stiffness. Ralph I. Sec, vile, of Cream Hill, passed away, surrounded by his weeping family, who for the first time in the home circle, felt most keenly the pang of separating the most tender of earthly ties.
 Not only at his own freside will his loss as devoted husband, kind and indulgent father, be irreparable, but a profound sense of sorrow pervades every home where he had endeared himself through life of christian ex. ample aad kindness. Ever ready to extend a helping hand and hearty sympathy to any of his neighbors and friends In diversity, truly he was a faithful and upright man in all the rela- tions of life, and his departure from oul midst in his seemingly days of depen dence and usefulness is deeply lamen- ted. The sympathy of the whole com munity is with the bereaved family in this, their hour of great sorrow and affllction, and may they be led to see through this dark and mysterious Providence Fathers guiding hand and | that

Mir Roraback appears as the central figure in the undress uniform of an angel The likeness Is not striking but the an gel IS little and modest like Roraback. The figure at the left in pair of wings, and nothing else, suggests Smith of Winsted. The angel on the rights little too good-looking for Staub and not quite good-looking enough for Addis-is probably Bolles as he will appear when finally translated. We hope the picture will be enlarged in oil by some New Milford artist and hung in the new courthouse at that place.

WEDNESDAY, MAY Is, 1887.
LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

The bill conferring upon women the right to vote on school questions passed the house.
 The senate passed appropriate resolu. tions in regard to the demise of the Hon Oliver Hoyt, of Stamford. He was president of the senate in 1887 and 1876 and was member of that body from 1877 to 1883.
 Resolutions of regret were passed by the house upon the death of the Hon Dwight Marcy, of Vernon, speaker ol the house of representatives during the session of the general assembly of 1880.
 The resolution making the appropria- tion of S5,0OO for the Connecticut School for Imbeciles, at Lakeville, passed the house. An amendment was offered to the effect that lien be put by the state on all real estate which has been purchased with money appropria- ted by the state, but it was lost. Both the senate and house were honored by 8 visit from Senator Hawley on Thursday. He was received with great applause.
 The act making the time of meeting of selectmen and school visitors in June instead of July, passed the senate. By adhering to previous action the house killed two bills relating to the above question.
 The bill e1empting $50 of wages from attachment was reconsidered and again passed by the senate. Senator Bates was convinced that it was an un- just measure, not beneficial to the lAboring class, and detrimental to mer- chants and others, who in times of need allow credit to workmen. It was advo- cated by Senator Walsh. The house concurred with the senate.
 The senate and house have fixed Thursday, May 19, as the date of final adjournment, making grand total of seventy-four days for the session of the general assembly of 1887.
 The resolution in relation to the ex- tension of the Hartford and Connecticut Western railroad, was passed by the senate, although not without opposi tion. Hartford, through its Mayor, objected on the ground that thereby trade would be diverted from that city. It was also passed by the house.
 The action in regard to autopsies in hospitals met with the approval of both the senate and house. It provides that permission to make post mortem exami nations must be obtained from relatives, unless the opinion of the coroner be that the cause of death was from the omission or neglect of some person, ol was criminal act.
 The act exempting from state tax towns in which veterans of war reside, to the amount of exemption of those soldiers, came back to the house having been passed by the senate. The bill had been previously rejected by the house, and was again rejected by that body,
 The bill relating to the inspection oi factories was called from the foot of the calendar and passed in concurrence by the senate on Thursday. Senator Bates considered it question of human life against money, and Senator Staub coa sidered the saving of life and limb vast ly more important than the S3, ,0O( necessary to support the office of ar inspector. The bill does not interfere with the right of injured persons tt recover damages for injuries sustained.
